A Night Divided-Beginning

In the book we read yesterday, a girl woke up to sirens throughout her town. When she looked out the window she saw the Berlin Wall. The government had built the wall overnight. Unfortunately, two nights ago her father and brother went on a trip to the other side of the wall. The wall had not been built yet. The government didn't want people to be crossing the border anymore, so they built a wall. The girl's family was split up. Two nights earlier, one of their neighbors told them the government was going to do something about the people. He said their government cannot be trusted. I think the main problem is the struggle of trying to be with their father and brother on the other side of the wall.
